Airbnb Is Doing Online Experiences Now So You Can Get Yelled At By An Italian Nonna From Home

SIGN UP TO PEDESTRIAN DAILY

Thanks for signing up!

Just because we’re all stuck inside and definitely not going on any overseas (or even interstate) trips for the foreseeable future, definitely doesn’t mean that we can’t still explore the world around us. To help us keep connected, entertained, and educated by friendly strangers while we’re stuck at home, Airbnb has taken its experiences to the online world.

Yep, if you’ve ever wanted to learn how to make pasta from a sweet little Nonna in the Italian countryside, now you totally can.

Ah, the wonders of technology, both ruining our lives and making it strides better at the same time.

Probably a bit better than having another night of drinking wine with your mates on House Party (though that’s always a good time), these little online experiences from Airbnb will get you talking to new people (!!!) and also helping people across the world get a little bit of income during a time where so many people are suddenly without work.

The classes and sessions are not too wildly pricy, either. There’s a Swedish baking class that’ll set you back $15 for an hour and a half, or join in on a concert in Iceland for $17, or go backstage with a magician for $34. Literally what else do you have to do this weekend?

Check out all the experiences over on the Airbnb website, and keep an eye on it because there will be more things to do around the world as the weeks, and the isolation, rolls on.
